Dwight Yoakam - Floyd county

It's a ^Dsad day in Floyd ^GCounty Mr. ^DJones, ^G Yeah the grief is ^Dstrong, ^A For the man that's^D gone.^A And at the ^Dgrave his woman ^Gcries and she ^Dmoans, ^G 'Cause its a ^Dsad day in Floyd ^ACounty, Mr. ^DJones.

The six ^Cchildren he ^Graised are all ^Dweepin', For this ^Csoft-spoke^Gn mountain ^Dman. That ^Cfed 'em with the ^Gmoney he ^Dearned in those black ^Gmines, And the ^Dfood he could ^Araise with his ^Dhands.

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd ^GCounty Mr. ^DJones, ^G Yeah the grief is ^Dstrong, ^A For the man that's^D gone.^A And at the ^Dgrave his woman ^Gcries and she ^Dmoans, ^G 'Cause its a ^Dsad day in Floyd ^ACounty, Mr. ^DJones.

Though the ^Cworld knew ^Gnothing of his ^Dwisdom, Or the ^Chonest and ^Gsimple things he ^Ddid. There's some ^Cfolks ^Gcryin' on this ^Dhillside ^Gtoday, That ^Dknow about the ^Ahumble way he ^Dlived.

'Cause it's a sad day in Floyd ^GCounty Mr. ^DJones, ^G Yeah the grief is ^Dstrong, ^A For the man that's^D gone.^A And at the ^Dgrave his woman ^Gcries and she ^Dmoans, ^G 'Cause its a ^Dsad day in Floyd ^ACounty, Mr. ^DJones.

Now this ^Chouse in the ^Gholler stands ^Dempty, Though his ^Cpresence in my ^Gmemory is ^Dplain. You know I'd ^Cswear that I just ^Gsaw him ^Dwalking up that ^Ghill, I guess this ^Dplace won't ^Gnever be the ^Dsame.
